Time to move on

She's gone my 04' S2000 had to go after nearly four years and 35k.

Picked up my 08' Nissan 350Z GT, 313 Roadster on the weekend...

Getting used to it at the mo.. lol

Good luck. I am finding it very difficult to find a car to replace my S2000.

Good luck with the 350z, lovely cars. Used to have a GT back in 2005, loved it. Then took out a roadster a few years later and loved that, very different to the s2000 I just picked up.

www.350z-uk.com is a good source of info on them

How does it compare then? Little review would be nice. Had a go in the older model once and just feel the engine made a nice noise but never had enough power, the new one might just be the answer?

I've had the car for a few days now and have done approx 400 miles. The 350Z and the S2000 are chalk and cheese. We had owned the S2000 since 2005 and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. I even fitted an induction kit for more noise and a front strut brace bar to give the car a better feel. The only thing wrong to me with the S2000 was the lack of power at low revs and the harshness of the car at motorway speeds.. This was probably down to me as I am nearly touching forty.

The 350Z is a different car effortless to drive, agile and the power delivery reminds me of the old Chimaera 400 I once owned a few years back. The 350Z is more enjoyable on the motorway (a lot less noise from the drivetrain, less buffeting with the top down and has plenty of power on tap at any rev range in any gear.

Overtaking is a breeze, squeeze the throttle and the mid range power catapults you forward quickly without the fuss of planning the gear change or waiting for the Vtec to engage..

Highly recommended, why not take one for a test drive....
